I notice that some people who have given the correct answer to your question have had the 'thumbs down' vote. tut tut to whoever did that.
TIR stands for “Transport Internationale Routiers” which in English means International Road Transport. It is an international transit system allowing goods to travel across one or more international borders with the minimum of customs involvement.
As from 16 September 2005 there are 66 Contracting Parties to the TIR Convention, including the European Community. It is, however, only possible to establish a TIR operation with 55 of these countries as the rest do not have an approved guarantee association (see section 11 for details). Goods that are moved under TIR can pass to or through these countries with customs duties and other taxes suspended and without the need for unloading/reloading at frontiers.
In order to ensure that goods may travel with a minimum intervention en route and yet offer maximum safeguards for Customs administrations in all countries of transit, the TIR regime contains five basic requirements or principles.
This notice and others mentioned are available both on paper and on our Internet website at www.hmrc.gov.uk

Initials for the French term “Transports International Routiers”, the name given to international road service facilities where one truck crosses many frontiers carrying goods. For example, a TIR truck could load in England and the driver could stay with it perhaps as far as the Middle East, Turkey, etc

island guy... is correct. TIR's travel all over europe, asia, africa and even USA (containers). Basically the containers are loades on local semis and go to their destination. They are transported from Europe on ships. In europe they travel from country to country.

The wording is French in origin-it means the Haulier works internationally within Europe. my take on an English translation would be "Transporter-International Routes".
